    Just did a run to Wiener Neustadt with the OBB Taurus and at first I had to brake a lot going downhill. Later on I had the feeling like the brakes where still on, going downhill with 2% or more gradient, with no power the loco was still breaking. On the fast track I was not able to go faster then 140 km/h.

    Tried to reset everything, with coming to a stop, and start again, pushed the release park brake button, but nothing. Even reset physics did not help. Did I something wrong, or is this loco bugged?

    Btw, what terrible performance on this route, some parts are fine, other parts have very low framerate and lag.

    Update: did another run, same behavior but somehow I was able to release the brakes this time. However I noticed, braking with 1b looks like it's braking at full service. At the start of the service, everything is acting normally, but just before you reach the fast line to Wien, it's bugged. So don't know if this is something with the route or the loco.

    Update 2: did a run with the Taurus on Salzburg - Rosenheim, same issue near the end of the run. I noticed when the problem occurs, you hear the sound of the break pressure building up. If you release the break with the left bumper on the controller, the sound stops for a moment but comes back quickly.

    No one who has seen this issue before? I can't find anything online about this issue and the OBB Tauris is the only loco I've seen this behavior. As I've had the issue on both Semmeringbahn and Salzburg - Rosenheim, I guess it's not route releated.
